Hello Tomás F. L.

I don't know why they changed it.
I think you can do the same by two commands:
apt-get --fix-broken install
apt-get autoclean

As for your fixed synopsis, I meant that -f works with also commands
upgrade, dist-upgrade and autoremove, as they may install/remove
packages, too. But otherwise your synopsis looks good for the -f option.

By the way,
option -s does works only with commands upgrade, dist-upgrade, install, remove, 
purge, check, clean, autoclean and autoremove.

The manual is not perfect as for autoremove: Bug #1052864
The respective Debian bug was reported on 2009 and is still not fixed.
